Nigeria oh Nigeria
Mother of Africa
Nigeria oh Nigeria
Where the sun rises in
the morning and sets in the evening
Giant of Africa
The strength and power
of Africa
Mother of all black
nations
A land filled with
beauty beyond comprehension
Full of great people,
culture, traditions, tribes, ethnic groups
Beautiful vegetation
and land
Nigeria oh Nigeria
Your children are great
in all the land
They excel in all
nations of the earth
A land of peace though
ravaged by corruption, insecurity
Ethnic crises, poverty,
Boko Haram, reveries, political and religious crisis
Yet like a child in
distress there is hope in your future
Nigeria oh Nigeria
Mother of Africa
Pride of all nations
Your beauty speaks
Rich in wealth and
natural resources
Yet in need
Rich in agriculture,
live stock, crude oil, gold
Silver mineral, natural
and human resources
Looted by colonial
masters
Countless of your
children lost in slave trade
Yet in unity
Hmm! You fought and
conquered Biafra war
And brought your
children back in unity
Nigeria oh Nigeria
Soon your destiny no
longer shall be mere dreams or fantasies
Electricity and
security your possession
Darkness and corruption
a thing of the past
Underdeveloped? No
longer shall you be called
Your green passport all
shall gladly seek
Then shall all nation
of the world come under your shelter
Mother of Africa
Nigeria oh Nigeria
Rich in culture
Vast in land
Land of joy, land of
fruitfulness
Symbol of peace, symbol
of hope
Surrounded by waters,
sign of wealth, joy and peace
Peace keeper art thou
been to nations
Like the mother hen
protect her children from the invading eagle
Fifty three years and
still counting
Yet are your children
waxing strong in unity
Like the renewed eagle
your strength and beauty grow each day
All hail Nigeria!
My mother land
Land of love, peace,
hope and unity
Nigeria my Nigeria
God bless Nigeria!
